ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER
No. 2014 - _______________

SUBJECT:The New Documentary Requirements for the Registration of Medical


Device Products

I. Rationale

The fast evolution of medical technology and the importance of medical devices in the health
care delivery system have awakened the regulators to look more into the safety and effectiveness
of these devices through regulation while facilitating trade among the ten member states of the
Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). Structured and regionally accepted technical
requirements were developed by the ASEAN member states through the ASEAN Consultative
Committee on Standards and Quality – Medical Device Product Working Group (ACCSQ-
MDPWG). The development of the common submission dossier template (CSDT) was a
concerted effort of all the member states taking into consideration the global technical
requirements developed by the Global Harmonization Task Force.

The CSDT is a set of technical requirements for the registration of the medical device products
agreed by the ten ASEAN member states. The Philippines is committed to align the regulatory
guidelines with this set of technical requirements, thus the development of this administrative
order.

II. Declaration of Policy

Pursuant to Republic Act No. 9711, the Food and Drug Administration Act of 2009, and its
implementing rules and regulation, this Administrative Order is formulated to govern the new
documentary requirements for the registration of medical device products.

III. Objective

The new documentary requirements are hereby promulgated to align the Philippine medical
device regulatory requirements to the common submission dossier template as agreed upon by
the ten (10) member countries under the ASEAN, as part of the ASEAN Medical Device
Directive.

IV. Scope

The new documentary requirements shall apply to all medical devices to be sold, imported,
exported, manufactured, and used in the Philippines, except in-vitro diagnostic and refurbished
medical devices, for both of which separate Administrative Orders shall be issued.
